Drive By (Live)
I was the driver for the drive-by of the neighbor's dog Dad had always hated him and he said 'Come on son, 'Get into the Vega now and I'll go get my shotgun' It was a military holiday and kids were everywhere I hid behind the steering wheel and tried to disappear I tried to speak but couldn't, Dad was whistling and drinking beer
And I prayed 'Dear God, if You save this dog 'I will never get high, I will never jack off 'I will be all the things that I should but have not 'I'll be a good boy from now on'
We turned around the corner soon and saw the neighbor's yard Dad lit up a cigarette and rolled his window down And grinning like an idiot he stuck his head and body out
And I prayed 'Dear God, if You save this dog 'I will never get high, I will never jack off 'I will be all the things that I should but have not 'I'll be a good boy from now on' Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Well he popped in a shell and took aim with the gun Then a flash and a bang and the dog it was gone... Jumped up and he ran away Dad had shot right through his chain
Dad said 'Take me to the Dairy Freeze, I want to have a shake' We sipped them on the benches there and stared out on the lake And Dad has never said another word about that day
And I hope you're not disappointed, God Cause I still get high and I still jack off And you knew I was lying but you still saved that dog You're such a good God Yea you're such a good, good God You're such a good goddamned backwards dog And I'll be a good boy from now on
